Hi Boston! My name is Don and I have been in the fish keeping hobby for years. I originally had a 37 gallon freshwater tank but, I thought I would use it to learn about saltwater set ups. This has been running for months now and has 30 pounds of Aragonite Sand, 50 pounds of Live Rock, has some amazing LED lights that make the colors pop too. For livestock I have 2 Ocellaris Clownfish, 1 Firefish, 1 Pygmy Angel, a Red Legged Hermit, some Nassarius snails, and a turbo snail as well. I will be getting an order from ReefCleaners in a day or so containing 5 Florida Ceriths, and some Cheato for my HOB Refugium. Also will be getting 2 cleaner shrimp as well from Petco. But, this thread was not made just for that tank. I recently purchased a 125 gallon aquarium. It is 6 feet long and is in my living room. It has built in corner overflows arrived along with a Stand, 3 versa tops, Eshoppes R200 refugium, Eshoppes PSK-200 Skimmer and mega-flow kits. I plan on using my Coralife RO Unit to fill the tank and do water changes as well (3 stage), 2 Eheim 400 watt heaters and (1) 36 inch Marineland LED light with built in timer arrived. Need to now, do all plumbing and test tank for leaks.I am considering a total of 120 pounds of live sand and around 130 pounds of live rock. Thoughts would be appreciated. Does anyone know where I can get live rock at a decent price? I am contemplating getting an Apex Lite controller made by Neptune systems with a ph and temp probe to start and would connect all electric to controller.
